Effective Hamiltonians in quantum physics: resonances and geometric phase

  • 1. Department of Physics and Astronomy, Louisiana State University, Baton Rouge, LA 70803-4001 (United States)

Description

Effective Hamiltonians are often used in quantum physics, both in time-dependent and time-independent contexts. Analogies are drawn between the two usages, the discussion framed particularly for the geometric phase of a time-dependent Hamiltonian and for resonances as stationary states of a time-independent Hamiltonian
